Christina Ricci must have cursed herself for appearing in a film with Cate Blanchett and then finding herself comprehensively acted off the screen by an actress of the highest calibre.
It is a warm story but full of plot holes, why for instance did a Jewish girl with a British passport stay in Paris after it was obvious it would fall to the Germans. And the French didn't start carting off Jews until 1942. Ricci's British accent is wobbly and sometimes entirely absent but then she has so few lines you hardly have time to notice.
Given the few comments here I would hazard a guess that this hasn't found an American distributor yet and it is really only playing European art houses at the moment. Not worth going out of your way to see unless like me you'll see anything with Blanchett in. 6/10
